Coal seam gas has turned tens of thousands of square kilometres of QLD into industrial gas fields.

For what?….export by foreign owned gas corporates who don’t even pay tax in Australia.

@janecaro.bsky.social Travelling from Tassie in our van. I had been saving your book The Lyre Bird for our trip. Without knowing, we travelled down The Bylong Valley Way into the Hunter Valley. Jane I loved the book, couldn't put it down. Well done you💚

I’ve seen a Palestinian father tenderly cradle and stroke the decapitated head of his toddler through my screen this morning while blogging about tax cuts and Australian politics and I’m not sure I’ve ever been more outside my body.

How can anyone still defend what Israel is doing? How???

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

I recollect regular reports of male athletes (mostly footballers) on drug/alcohol fueled nights out allegedly sexually abusing/raping women or committing other acts of #VAW (some found guilty) but it seems what Sam Kerr did is far worse/unforgivable.

I mean—fuck off with your sanctimony, fellas.

He's been a multi-millionaire property developer for 35 years, almost all of his life

For a brief 8½ in his 20s he was a suburban cop, a boring standard nobody cop

He's traded & lived off that ever since

Let's stop playing his game, call him what he is - a multi-millionaire property developer

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Every morning we wake up to more horror – but worse than that, more people who are seemingly indifferent to it. Compassion burnout is real, but it is also what power wants. Empathy keeps us human and yes, it is heavy, but it's a burden worth holding ♥️

A wonderful thread 🧵…

How is it that the Murdoch Media can be found guilty of defamation & misinformation in the USA & the UK of all places, but not Australia.

Murdoch is the most disrespectful and dishonest person on this planet.

He is a danger to our democracy, not Grace.

The Prime Minister of Australia thinks that Grace Tame's t-shirt is disrespectful. Well, let me tell you, what is more disrespectful than a woman who has the grit, guts and determination to speak truth to power:

If Tanya Plibersek had a private jet, she could fly nonstop for 100,000 years and it would still be considerably less than her carbon footprint from this year's coal mine approvals.

Beautiful morning here in Tassie this morning, saw a baby flounder and a pink jelly fish, with a tiny little fish hiding underneath! Relax and enjoy.
